Participants have been exploring the town and getting acquainted with Palma! We split up into groups to go on a Palma Scavenger Hunt for the participants to not only learn how to navigate through the town, but learn about some of the culture in Palma. Some of them are professional navigators and are already getting around without using their maps. 

We're already starting to notice two favorite stops of many participants in this hot climate. Ice cream and beach! Between ice cream pops and gelato there are so many flavors to try many are getting a head start on figuring out which is their favorite. 

From the free time this morning, we are starting to learn who our beach bums are going to be. Many have been enjoying the alternating between enjoying the hot sand and cooling off in the sea. We're very happy to see the reapplying of sunscreen and hope they stay this diligent the rest of the trip!
